Hi Mallika, So glad to read about your decision....but I know IVF is pretty expensive, maybe you should give it another chance to IUI.  In my case it worked on my 3rd IUI (but after the 2nd IUI I found out that I had a problem with my right fallopian tube (hydrosalpinx), and it was removed).  But as I said, those are options and I'm sure you will follow your heart on next steps.  I will continue visiting this forum, because I would like to read about your BFP soon!!! ^.^

As far as sympthoms I'm tired, don't feel like eating much (I feel nauseous constantly), and I have heartburn. Other than that I am doing good.  Yesterday was our first app follow the BFP and It was just amazing to see his little heart beating so fast... (even though they told me that it was kind of early to see it, so my husband and I were blessed for having that opportunity).  Now I need to get off my heals (oh Lord)!!!  haha.  Trying to continue with my normal life, and to follow all the instructions.

Blessings to all of you who are ttc... never lose hope!  Miracles happen every day.  As Jesus said to the blind man "what do you want me to do for you" (Luke 18: 35-43).  Never stop believing!  hugs!

I have been thinking about all of you.  Melenita and GG any news?  I know that I have been missing in action but I am still thinking of you girls and praying that God will bless you all at His perfect time.

Mato, Ive been thinking about you?  HOw are you feeling?  How far along are you?  ARe you still being closely monitored?  Keep me updated.

Mallika Im glad to hear that you are going to be trying naturally!  My first pregnancies actually happened naturally.  That's the best way to go because you are right "infertility conceiving" is sooooooo not sexy!!!  I hope the best for you.

Have we heard from Toneita and Angel?  I haven't seen them post recently.

To all the new girls in the blog, keep your heads up, stay focused and positive and remember to primarily leave your concerns completely in God's hands.  His will be done always in your lives.  That's the BEST way to go.

After 2 miscarriages, 2 failed iuis and 3 years of trying I finally have a positive and I am thanking God everyday I wake up and I am still pregnant.  Im going in tomorrow for my 2nd beta hcg to see if my levels are rising.  This apparently will demonstrate if my pregnancy is moving along in a healthy pattern.  I am not going to lie.......I am suuuuper nervous considering my history, however, I refuse to allow myself to worry (its sooo hard).  I will keep you all posted.  Apparently the levels should double every 2 days.  On Monday my levels were 480.  If I understand correctly they should be 1920.  I pray that they are.

Have a goodnight girls.  XO

I just had my 4th IUI today- I am feeling pretty mixed about it- the Dr had a hard time finding my cervix today and I didn't get the normal cramping I usually get and am worried that maybe the placement wasn't ideal. We also changed our HCG timing and am hoping that we made the right decision. I also realized that I will be able to test on the 11th, my sis in law finds out if they are having a boy or girl on the 12th, and then Mother's Day is the 13th! I will be even more sad this time than normal (of course happy for my sil!). I feel bad for even saying anything about it. Sometimes it's just hard to stay positive. I love reading your stories and feel so comforted knowing I'm not alone in this journey. Thanks for being so open and honest- I wish for only the best for all of us!

Hi ggdr, i am so sorry for your sad news. I know from my own past experience how painful it is. I had an IUI on 12 April and am also hoping to be pregnant this time. I phoned my doctor on Thurs (14 days post IUI) but he said to rather wait for Monday or Wednesday before doing a blood test. Every day this whole past week i have been dreading getting my period, even now i am. I am strengthened and inspired by your faith in God. I dont know how i will bear a disappointment this time as the doctor has told me this was the last IUI for me and then i have to go to a fertility specialist. The odds are against me but I just pray that it is God's will for me to be preg. He is the God of the impossible after all. And i know He has a plan for you to be a mommy. Unfortunately his timing is not the same as ours. Be strong and press on. And hold thumbs for me please as you know what i am going thru right now.

I am 6dpiui and I feel like I can't stop thinking about it. I feel kind of depressed like I don't want to do anything! I just fear that if it doesn't work the first time that we are in for a lot more effort, heartache, and bad news in the future. I have just been getting bad news left and right and I am ready for something to go right for once. I am glad there are forums like this because nobody else probably know what I am going through. It is hard to have all of the bad feeling all of the time and nobody to talk to about it. Does anyone else feel kind of depressed?

Hi Dchi,

listen dear first thing you need to do is relax and trust God, you must let him lead the way for you, we as human like to play God too much, Trust him honey he knows what's best for us. I just had a fail IUI it hurts but I trust him he knows something I don't know, just take it easy, read the words of God he will make away out of no way for you, you must be positive within yourself an order for positive things to start happening in your life. I will keep you in my prayer. It will be done keep yourself busy, its going to be a long ways before that two weeks waiting period you make the best out of it. Just remember whatever you are going through someone else is going through worst.

Hello ladies,
GG you just said everything I was thinking to write.

Dchi - as GG said you have to relax and trust God... you cannot control the results, but you can help by doing things that can keep you motivated, and not depressed. Remember this process is not easy... it is challenging and you need to get stronger.. what depression can do is to affect you and the way your body reacts to IUIs. Be proactive in finding a nice book to read, enjoying the company of your husband and family and spending time w/God... I promise you will feel better! Best wishes and blessings!

Hi again ggdr and thanks for your prayers :). Just an update from my side. LIke you i have no real pregnancy symptoms, but sitll no period. I have been spotting since yesterday tho. Naturally, that has made me extremely nervous and i have been dashing to and fro to the loo just to check if its the dreaded flow! Tomorrow is my day to test and i pray that i will get a BFP. Will keep you updated and will also keep YOU in my prayers. There is one thing i do know for sure, God is really in control of all of this stuff and if it is HIS will for it to be NOW, it will be. And the same applies to you. Take the clomid even if you dont do the IUI and just see what happens. As both of us know, this is easier said than done. But let us persevere like Hannah in the bible and God will reward us - in His time... So be strong!

Hi Ladies,
So I have MIA for a few days. It's been a rough few days but I feel better now. My beta numbers dropped to 11 by Sunday. I was advised that I will have a miscarriage, so now I am just waiting for it to happen which the doctor said may take about a week or so before it happens. It's such a heartache, sad, devastating, depressing, and so many other things but I maintain my Faith in God and I am sure that He does things for a reason.
Good luck to all you ladies, I pray that everything works for you all, we will have a happy day soon.
Trust God!

You are certainly not alone and not abnormal to be feeing like you do. Everyone was telling me to relax but i just couldnt. I thought about it all the time. It does help to keep as busy as possible and to try to do fun things that you enjoy. Dont worry, it will soon be day 14 and then you will know for sure.

My test came back negative and shortly after i got the phone call, my period started.Yay... Apparently the injections the doc gives u to help with ovulation can throw out your period times.

I'm going to stay still and wait on Him, His love and mercy will come to our rescue.

Go on Yahoo type in ovulation the work great for me and you will enjoy some of the sites there be sure to select one that gives you the option on best time for Boy/Girl. but my understanding of it you will ovulate between Day 10 to Day 17 POS give yourself two days before and two days after. Docs tell you 14 days from the first flow day. If using a kit be sure you check your temp so you don't waste your money. some signs are clear or somewhat light milky discharge, cranky, cramps, craving for chocolate,

when you are about to ovulate your temp is going to be slightly elevated the day before and the day of ovulation your temp will be around 98.9 - even go up to 100. so just look out for that and the clear like mucus/discharge odorless. I hope that helps

Hi everyone, I have posted before but have gotten no response so i furgured let me try here so heres my story.
had my first iui 4 months ago which resulted in pregnancy but sadly at 5 weeks i had miscarriage. after 2 months we began again process for 2nd iui. Doctor gave me 100mg of clomid which didnt work so doctor raised it to 200mg . On sunday 4/29 opk showed i was ovulating . I went in same day and did the iui they told me to come in the next day for another iui. After 2nd iui on Monday 4/30 doctor saw that I had ovulated and made my appointment for 2 weeks 5/14 day after mothers day :-)
I am now feeling crampiing and bloated and my boobs are sore. Today day 5 I had some vaginal discharge. Does anyone know if having double iui increases my chance of getting pregnant? Does having a miscarriage affect the second iui?

Yanira1

May 04, 2012

Hello! I wish I can give you some answers to your questions, but unfortunately I have no idea. This is the first time I read about double IUIs... but I will assume it will increase your changes. I hope it works for you and you will receive good news. Stay positive and try to enjoy other activities that will take your mind away of the 2WW. Blessings!

mallika26

May 05, 2012

Hi..some doctors do IUI on 2 consecutive days to increase chances,,,
and the vaginal discgarge could be a sign of implantation whicxh is good..Did you take HCG shot? If not and you still have sore breasts, that also could be a good sign..I wish you all the best and hope you get good news the day after mothers day...

Hello!  I wanted to share my experience with IUI.  This site was wonderful for me when I was going through the 2WW.
I am 34, no previous pregnancies.  My husband and I ttc for 12 months before seeing a fertility specialist.  After rounds and rounds of tests and 1 surgery, it was discovered that I have premature ovarian failure.

Immediately I was put on:
Gonal-F (150mg/day for 6 days)
Pregnyl (trigger shot) on 4/20/12
IUI - 4/22/12
1/2 Pregnyl shot to support implantation on 4/27/12.

Longest 2 weeks of my life!!  I took the HPT on 5/6 and another on 5/7 - both were BFP!  Confirmed with bloowork the afternoon of 5/7/12.

During the 2WW, I didn't have a lot of symptoms. My temperature went up from 98.6 to 99.1.  And my bbs were very sore, which I attributed to the shots because they had been sore since I began the Gonal-F shots.  But nothing else, which had me concerned.  Don't let this bother you!  Not everyone will have a ton of symtoms (symptoms)!!

Good luck to all of you!  I'll pray for BFP's for each of you!!

Aww congrats!! Seeing that BFP makes this all worth it!! Wish you the best . Keep me in your prayers my appt is 5/14. day after mothers day . Which Im thinking maybe I can check on mothers day (day before appt) since technically its day 14 from 1st iui. IDK . Im feeling cramps like im abou to get my period. and on day 5 and today day 9 got discharge. Im trying not to read into it and just wait till test day.. HOPING FOR THAT BFP!

Hello, I am 36ys old and 5 days past iui and was reading all of your comments. Very interesting! This whole ordeal does weigh heavy on the mind. I think about it constantly. This was my first iui. My boobs are slightly sore, however, this is normal before AF around this time. The wait is long, like the longest two weeks of my life. I have kept the iui to myself other than my closest family members. After the iui I had some cramping and now feel subtle cramping every now and then on my left side. I have a blocked tube on my right-side, which will not be corrected. I am unsure of my dx. My gyn dx me with pcos due to a slight elevation of testoserone level of 51. I do get one cyst on my ovary, never the cysts that look like a string of pearls. My fertility specialist stated not to worry about that. Last month my follicle did not mature, it turned into a cyst, thus iui cancelled. This month after what seemed like every-other day monitoring i got a follie at 21mm (or is it cm?) :)
I really dont like the monitoring at all. The constant bloodwork and sonograms at 7:30am! hahaa I hope that this FIRST iui works and I dont have to go through this again. Should I not get a BFP, i will wait a few months before going through all of that moitoring again. what do you think? is it a good idea to wait a couple of months, or should i continue. My ins only covers 3 iui's before i can have IVF. Thanks :)

Hi Mallika, How things going with you? Thank you and all the ladies on this site who really understand what each of us going through. Tomorrow will be the 14th day after ovulating. I didn't do IUI this cycle but tried naturally. I did home preg test 2 days ago and it was negative. As today I do not get my period either. Don't have any symptoms either. I am so anxious and scared to test again and get a negative again. God... I really need some back bones here. Wish me luck!!!

May 09, 2012

I will def keep you in my prayers! You should be able to test on day 14 - the shots that will give you a false read should be out of your system by then. The cramping you're feeling could be a really good sign - that's typically associated with implantation. So is the spotting. My friend went through this one week before I did and she cramped the entire time - she got a BFP too!

Hello ladies,

Thanks so much for your kind words. I know that none of us want to be in this situation, but here we are. Today is my 14th day after my 4th IUI. I didn't take a preg test today because I just feel like AF is on her way. It is also a hard weekend as I said before with Mother's Day, my sis in law finding out if she is having a boy or a girl, and now also my cousin has an appt on monday to see how far along she is. These are all great things, but I thing the addition of a negative test versus just my period would be too much. I am so happy to have read the great news posted by some of the women here on the forum. It is comforting to know that it can happen and to just put it in God's hands. I am pretty sad, but I have a great husband and family. We will be doing another IUI if this really is a negative. After that, I'm not sure what we will do as we both have infertility issues. Thanks again for this open and honest forum, it can be so difficult keeping these things in and being able to discuss them with others who are in my position is just what I need. Prayers all around :)

Hi Mallika and ladies, I don't how I should react now. I did several home pregnancy tests and got positive for all tests and went in to get blood test this Wed. hCG was 27. Dr. wanted me to go in again this morning and hCG is only 39. It doesn't double up. My doctor said he is sorry and this may not be a health pregnancy. But ask me to have another blood test again next Friday. Meanwhile, if I have lower abdominal pain I should go to ER... I read on internet " A normal pregnancy may have low hCG levels and result in a perfectly healthy baby". Does it mean in later pregnancy? I don't know what to believe at this point. Just kinda depressed. my emotions have been a yoyo since this Tuesday. Thought I will have a best mother's day ever... :(

Hey everyone i am new to this forum and i have been reading up all these answers...congrats to all who are pregnant and to those who are not you in my prayers. My husband i I have been ttc for over 3 years with no luck. On our 2nd year bc of my irregular period we were started on Clomid. I did ovulate however no pregnancy. So after 3 years we decided its time to see a specialist. We have done all kinds of testing and everything was normal..i ovulated without clomid....no cysts...great uterus...hubby sample was also great. So nothing is wrong and no baby which makes me so angry lol. So we decided to try IUI. So my question is what should i expect when i have it done....does it hurt....and what are my chances of getting pregnant the firest time???

so update. today went to see my doctor for my 14th day check up.. urine test was BFN :-(
doctor said i should be getting AF in the next couple of days and if i dont get it by friday to test again. He gave me Rx for clomid in case AF does pay a visit. I am feeling cramps at times they are very intense.. Im a bit discouraged cuz the iui was succesful the first time so im not sure what happened this time. Nurse said maybe we tested to early so check again on friday. My DH says not to lose hope maybe Friday we get that BFP. Feeling a bit sad today. doc didnt even order blood work he just sent me home with Rx and to test again on Friday if no AF. Why didnt he just take blood work instead of making me go crazy from here till friday.

Hi liltanya,

I have had 4 IUI's- just started the process for #5. It doesn't hurt at all, it starts off just like a pap, but there isn't all of that discomfort like a pap. There is some slight cramping when the semen is placed, but really that's it. I wish you a lot of luck. It's hard to say how many times it should take. We had been doing clomid/follistim (2), then femara/follistim (2), and now just follistim. We have male and female factors though, so hopefully your chances will be greater! Good luck :)

Poor thing... I know what you mean. My doctor is doing the similar thing to me. I got
BFP on 13th day. He ordered me the blood test, Beta: 27. He congrats me and told me that was a bit on low side so asked me to do another blood test 2 days later, Beta: 39 which didn't double up. He then told me he is sorry and this may not be a health pregnancy. BUT wanted me to go in and have another blood test this Friday. I was crying and screaming in my heart when he said sorry. He didn't know how my emotions go YOYO these days... I did several home pregnancy tests and they still show that I am pregnant. Oh well... Our babies are going to come when the time is right. I am crossing my fingers and pray for the good numbers this Friday. I will pray for you too. Hope we all hear good news soon. XOXOXO.

Thank you. That happened to me on my first iui. It was negetive in my uringe he ordered blood test and it was positive. there were monitering my beta to make sure they were rising. finally i went in to do my first sono . He told me "you are pregnant but unfortatlet it doesnt look like a normal preganancy . Looks like your about to miscarry." When I heard thos words it felt like my world ended. Completed my miscarriage on feb 13th. After nearly 2 months doc said we can try again. OPK said I ovulated on sunday 4/29 went in same day and the next day. When he did sono he saw that I did ovulate. DH had good count both times. I was confident that it worked since it worked the first time and this time urine shows negetive but he didnt even order blood work to confirm. simply told me to wait. This wait is driving me crazy.

I hope your beta goes up and you have your baby . When do you go back for beta results?

Hi Mallika, You know we are doing all things we can do. Then we will let God take care of the rest. I keep telling myself this journey maybe long but worth every step of it. We have to have faith on God and one thing a time, one day a time, one week a time and one month a time. Our babies are on their way. Don't be too sad yet. Hope you won't get your period this month. I will pray for you. XOXOXO

You're welcome :) Hopefully you're pregnant now!! You never know :) I'm the same way though, as soon as I decide to take a test, here comes AF- it definitely gets old fast. We've been TTC for 3 years, 1 on our own, 6 mo on just Femara, and now on our 5th IUI. We took some time off bc my husband had a procedure to help his sperm count (which really didn't do a lot). I go in tomorrow to see how my follicles are growing. I hope I don't have too many since I am doing all shots this time. Normally with the femara/follistim combo I get 3 good follicles which is ideal. I did femara day 3-7, follistim 7-10, trigger day 11 then IUI day 13. Maybe it's different for you since you don't need a trigger? I don't know what ovidrel is though? I wish you guys the best of luck- it feels great to start on a path that has some hope, that's for sure:) Keep us posted on AF and your first cycle (if ya need it!) :)

I am sorry it didn't work out this cycle, keep your Faith in God, He will make it happen for you and all of us going through this tough journey. I had a positive on 04/19 with beta at 42.8 then two days later I had beta at 142 however on 04/29 my beta dropped to 11 and I was unfortunately told by my doctor that it would be a miscarriage, the M/C happened on 05/02 which was very painful. I was very heartbroken but here I am again waiting for my Day 1 to start anothe IUI. We need to only focus on the outcome of having a healthy baby and then it's all worth it. It was very hard for me, I can say that now... I've shed my share of tears but I know that God has a purpose and a plan for me, for all of us.

May God bless you and ALL the other ladies going through this process!
